uniquely styled and

Reborn for you

For more than half a century the Mercedes-Benz W113 280SL Pagoda has captured hearts with its breath-taking beauty and advanced engineering. It’s a motorcar born from a time when grace and taste were the essence of design. Hemmels welcomes you to a new era of elegance, with an invitation to create an exclusive classic car that’s handcrafted to perfection and ready for a new dawn. Styled and reborn. For you.

 The Pagoda

Legend

Beyond the stunning attractiveness of the 280 SL is an unmatched versatility. This is a motorcar made for year-round adventure. Lower the soft top and you’re connected to the open world, living in the moment.  For evening appearances, the seductively curved Pagoda hard top exudes sophistication and allure.

Inside is a symphony of chrome, a stunning instrument panel and luxurious leather surroundings. Open to the world or cocooned in elegance, each element of the interior is styled and hand-crafted just for you in the leather, colours and textures of your choosing.

built to your vision

Exclusively Yours

This is your car, built to your vision. We’ll work together to find the perfect combination that captures your spirit and makes a statement of distinction. You can go beyond Mercedes-Benz colours to create a car like no other, or commission your Mercedes-Benz 280SL Pagoda to be just as it originally left the factory.

You can choose a polished engine or opt for the factory original look. Headlamps can be styled as per US or EU spec. There's also options to upgrade your comfort with air-conditioning and heated seats. And of course, you can add a retro-look in-car entertainment system to keep you company on those grand tours.

Just like when you buy a new luxury car, you can personalise your Mercedes-Benz 280SL Pagoda with headrests, a wind deflector, whitewall tyres, and an electric antenna. The list is endless. 

Commissioning

Process

Commissioning your 280 SL Pagoda is just like ordering a new luxury car with defined Commencement, Creation phase and Delivery dates. A Hemmels 280 SL Pagoda is created in 52 weeks, according to the strict schedule of the Neugeboren Process, with its precise restoration activities and planned milestones. And we’ll share the experience together, on your personal portal with regular updates and photographs.
